Meditation has changed my life. In a way that I didn’t really understand until about a year or two of doing it consistently. As someone who doesn’t feel emotions very deeply, I was missing something very important in life. When you are on this pursuit of accomplishing something great though creativity & business, I believe that the the biggest driver of success is how well you can derive the moves you make off your uniqueness, emotions, & personal life. In order for something to be special it must come from within the people involved. No amount of self help books, business podcasts, & mentors can help you grow like implementing your rarity into your decisions can. So, since I don’t feel deeply sometimes, I had to find a new way for me to understand myself and the things that I genuinely value. Meditation has been that driver for me. I started out just by sitting on my floor for 10 minutes after I woke up to plan my day. Then I started trying breathe work & feeling the clarity it brought me. Now it is the first thing I think about when I open my eyes in the morning. I knew I needed to do things in a unique way in order to build something, but I didn’t really know what made me unique. Meditation allows me to dive deep into how my 1 of 1 mind looks at the world, what is truly important to me, what I see in the future for myself, and the main things that drive my creativity. Since that does not come very naturally to me, I have to take intentional time to figure that side of myself out so I can implement it into my work. I just recently realized that that is why I’m obsessed with it. I always knew that it was helping me in some way, but I never really knew what it was actually doing for me. That is now my understanding.
